as dumb as we wanna be

or: Spiritual Tar - Strip Mining the Human Soul
Up, Down.

my understanding is that peaking carbon emissions in 2009 would have given us a 50/50 shot at keeping the average global temperature increase to 1.5 degrees C, and that peaking by 2015 would give the same chance of keeping it to 2 degrees. what do you think of that? please tell me.

a dream of broken glasses & lost lenses, of being unable to exchange currency, of trying to buy cigarettes with no proper money, of a skinny girl I knew in highschool, anonymous flowers & mistaken motives, of meeting my old boss somewhere & he brings along his own curtain rod, a dream of pledging my heart, of tight shoes that somehow terrify me into wakefulness



"as dumb as we wanna be" is from a book by Thomas Friedman, Hot, Flat, and Crowded, where he pretty well proves exactly that, Spiritual Tar - Strip Mining the Human Soul is a book I would write except that it is a sort-of oxymoron :-)

Michael Deibert - Notes from the Last Testament: The Struggle for Haiti, from Seven Stories Press, not properly proof-read, not very well thought out or put together - you would have to call it 'cobbled,' or sketchy, or, hey! I know! We'll call it 'Notes ...' whatever - nonetheless worth 'noting' :-)
